Forums - Gaming Discussion - Do FFXV and KH3 really make more sense on the XBO than the Wii U?

People already said porting. In addition it is possible that MS could be giving SE incentives to have those games on their systems. SO at the end of the dead it comes down to money

i dont think SE saw success with FF on 360 last year. But whatever bucks MS fronted to have it on the system is the first place doesnt really matter what it sold on 360



Kingdom Hearts III has always made sense to be on Wii U, considering the existence of a Nintendo audience for the game (DS and 3DS games). It's lazy and a sign of short-term thinking to just put it on XBONE. Yes, the port is easier. But it will not sell on that platform. You're telling me that with how long it already takes to come out with these games they can't afford time? I think it's obvious MS is paying them.



I don't think it makes sense on Xbox One. At least with MGS, there was a collection on the Xbox platform so that fan base has some idea of what's going on. But Kingdom Hearts? The series that's 6 games in (6 worth mentioning) with a big storyline, and not one of them has touched an Xbox? No sense, whatsoever.

well isnt that the answer? it already takes time to make so why would they take MORE time to make a WIi U version knowing that it would be more time consuming and difficult than a straight xbone port? Thats not what you want to hear but from a financial and time management it does make sense to have it on xone than Wii U. Demograph is another thing. But im with you on teh MS is paying them. They did it last gen, not reason to believe they stopped.

YOu guys are really letting the demograph cloud your argument. So KH was on Ninty PORTABLE systems. So what? A KH game has never graced a Ninty home console either so as far as it goes down its in the same place as xbox. Just because someone bought a game on a portable system doesnt mean they would do so on a home console hell how much overlap is there between the two?

Ill go one further i say it makes sense to have these two games especially KH3 to be EXCLUSIVE to PS4. Come at me.



I don't see how a couple of portable side games mean there's an audience for KH3 on Wii U, especially when Wii U owners have shown repeatedly that they don't give a crap about anything but exclusives.



It makes more sense to make the games on Wii U since the games are also Japanese oriented but to be honest, I rather have it this way, that way it would be like an exclusive for ps4 in Japan.



Both of KH and FF sold in the west more then in Japan so i think it's make sense to make then on XB than the Wii u



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

the only sense is the arquiteture. no sense apart from it.

they could at least sell a version of KH1.5 and 2.5 for wii U and see the reception.
then decide to port or not the KH3 for wii U.

every time i play KH i think: "man, it have something like nintendo magic."
